More details to this question:
i have real concerns about my child and i am seeking custody. the mother has more means to satisfy her new boyfriend than be at home and take care of her responsibility as a mother. i visited the house about a week and a half ago. i spoke to the tenants, and they are willing to write me statements (without them going to court) if i take this to court. do i have probable cause to fight for him. i do not have my original receipts of purchase for his belongings, and i am sure she doesn't either. She and i started the process to enroll him into his schooling she completed it without my signatures or emergency contact(until i went and found out, and updated the information) She has been employed for about 4 months and has a vehicle, i believe informal probation for theft. I have just started my new job, no vehicle, and a clean record. we both have some debt but mine is low compared.

It sounds like you were & are not married to the mother. It also sounds like you do not have any court orders for the child. In this case, you would need to file a Petition to Establish Parental Relationship with the court. This would address custody, visitation and support for the child. If you wish to address the custody quickly, you would also file a Request for Order.
If you & the mom do not agree on a parenting schedule then the judge will make a ruling.
